Glider Pilot Regiment printed titles

[DougSA]

I would be interested to know if this pair of titles, currently up for sale on e-Bay, are genuine?

I have a few printed GPR titles already and anyway will be unlikely to be able to stretch to whatever this pair might sell for, but would nevertheless be interested to hear opinions, for future reference.

The few that I have were received directly from GPR veterans, so 100% genuine. Also from two separate veterans, so not originally a pair; as you can see one is used and the other unused.

Looking at the lettering on this pair on e-Bay, it seems to me that the shape of some of the letters is a bit different. Notably the first 'G' looking less squashed, the first 'R' have a slightly different shape to it's leg, and the 'O' being a bit more rounded.

Looking forward to hearing opinions on this...

Doug as you have noticed they are different from the originals. As a rule of thumb, special forces insignia from this seller are fake.
